Freshwater shore dive with wrecks and training plateaus.
Freshwater shore dive with wrecks and training plateaus.
De Beldert is a managed freshwater shore dive near Tiel with paid entry, parking, and a full dive center on site. Divers enter from the jetties and follow underwater ropes to a training-friendly circuit of plateaus, wreck objects, and larger features such as a cutter and a Boeing 707 nose. It is a practical place for practice dives, club outings, and cold-water skills rather than a wildlife-heavy natural bottom.
